My Redskins 2012 Draft
1 Robert Griffin III QB, Baylor
3 Brandon Boykin CB, Georgia
4 Senio Kelemete OG, Washington
4 James-Michael Johnson ILB, Nevada
5 Andrew Datko OT, Florida State
6 Devon Wylie WR, Fresno State
7 Bryan Anger P, California
Simple, we traded our #6 overall this year's draft, our 2013 1st rounder, and our 2014 1st rounder. And our second rounder this year's draft. That's 3 1st rounders and a 2nd. In exchange we got the Ram's #2 overall pick, which we used to get Griffin.
Ergo, we invested 3 first rounders and a second rounder in RG3. That's what we spent to get him. Does anyone not understand this? If you don't, where do you think this years first and second and our next two drafts' first round picks went?
edit: By comparison, we invested a 4th rounder in Cousins, which makes *my* head hurt. So you guys getting a headache in this thread aren't alone.

*In a list ditch move to save the lovable big eyed wonders of the sea:
Maybe it's simple semantics.
In topsy-turvy Semantic Land, you literally give up 3 1st's, regardless of getting 1 back in return. So whilst in effect even in this crazy far flung corner of the Universe, you still only gave up 2 picks; in Semantic Land reality you ALWAYS gave up the original 3.
And now my head is spinning faster than a fast spinning spinning thang.
Hail.
*Edit* And just HOW the Hell did PCS get a hold of my HS Math Paper final? And just WHAT the Hell else does he know? And for the record, as bad as that looks, I want it noting for the record my handwriting's improved since then.
Cancell the padded room. I have a hard drive to wipe .....
